Usability Study
KS user experience designers recently conducted a series of usability studies with an interactive prototype. Part of the study included a casual review of Berkeley's prototype to draw comparisons and preferences. The findings detail 5 general usability issues, 2 usability blockers and 11 top suggested solutions.
GWT 2.0 On the Way
The project expects to upgrade to GWT 2.0 in early May. Kudos to Boris Orasov from Berkeley's implementation team for doing the initial research and documentation.
March Board Meeting
Board meeting highlights include: Architecture Decisions e.g. "ensure the UI layer remains separate and independent from the application layer"; Release 1.1 plans e.g. "Look to community to develop projects or experiential learning"; New team structures, e.g. "new Product Manager, Development Manager" and team assignments and Partner news, e.g. MIT transition.
